Description: After a happy childhood picking herbs, making potions, healing the sick and helping the local villagers, Rapunzel grows into a beautiful young woman - and suddenly finds herself locked in a tower. But this is Rapunzel as you've never seen her before - tough, sassy, a survivor, a lover, a fighter - and life has a whole lot more in store for her yet. Set in Italy, the home of this ancient folk tale, 'Rapunzel' or 'The Magic Pig' is a lively, funny, passionate story of abandonment and loyalty, love and betrayal, complete with mafia bosses, magic bushes, evil princes and a wonderfully helpful pig.
